i was looking at the original version yesterday. it's on sale. Now i know why, the new one is being released!! beautiful unit. i will definitely be looking at grabbing one
I got the Prime Go almost 3 years ago and I am really happy with it. Constant software updates, improving things over time, and the last 4.1 gave us also bluetooth out! Is it perfect? No it's not, but I think many people complaining about it lack of... Mental flexibility? Very few controllers compare to this pocket rocket, and the software support has been honestly great, which, for the use you should expect of this gear, makes it worth it.
I like your style. Yes you could be right people who expect it to be exactly the same as Pioneer are always going to be disappointed but it does have its own strength.
I just wish they would bring out a new version of the Denon DJMC 4000 , there is a gap in the market for a compact (but professional) controller, the 4000 had it all really. the prime go is amazing, but overkill for some of us who dont really need the battery or the screen which adds weight and cost to it. we could do with the extra space for better jogs and longer pitch faders. a 4000 with some new intuitive stem features, now that would be a treat
There’s always been a lack of decent mid range controllers. There seems to be a jump from basic units all the way up to professional unit so I completely agree with you.
The original Prime Go review is what made me discover and love DDJT! Glad to see a refresh, and the software is still great, although they shouldve pivoted and added a new killer feature to contest the Omnis-Duo in public eye (although music stores in my area are saying still nobody wants to buy those)
Was actually looking t the DjGO again just the other day wondering if I should wait any longer for new product.. This answered that question to a tee. Now I just gotta get the dosh. Looks great!
@@digitaldjtips Isnt it strange though. ALphaTheta have all the marketing muscle and technical prowess the industry can muster, they keep spitting out unit after unit, all with some highly desirable features, yet always somehow fall just a little short ofthe mark at a bit too steep of a price, and Denon just do a couple of small adjusstments to half a decade old product and just create a whole lot more exciting product overall AT a pricetag not out of this world... Heck, they even removed some things here to do that... Though for myself, I dont see much point in the amazon music thing thats their thing, I`d like to see some Traxxsource adaptation, and like I think you said, Serato... maybe its in the works... Oh and Iwoiuld absolutely dig it iif turntables could behooked up as well.. Oh well. Tuff little unit nevertheless.
Honestly, the original not having slip mode made me return it. I surprisingly use that a lot. Them putting it in for this version is a dealmaker for me.
Thanks for the video introduction to the Prime Go +! Does it have EQ Tone adjustment for the mics? I was told the Prime Go didn't have that and it made me hesitate to buy one plus, the Prime Go was already 4 years old when I started to look at it recently as a back up controller or one I could travel with. I thought maybe a new version would be coming out soon and there it is, you are showing us the DJ Prime Go+ 1st.
I switch from Pioneer, the top of them to SC6000, 4+, PrimeGo I sold the 4+ last month, it is not my type But SC6000 and PrimeGO is still the best thing rn, GO+, fine, keep it going.
Ohhh the battery on my original GO has given up and it is currently with Denon for repair... I wonder if they will replace it with the newer battery instead 😉🙏🏼
It’s nice to have the sd card option also usb at the back so soundswitch dongle can be plugged in for lighting output. I owned the P4+ I’m also looking at getting the prime go
The original GO was not cheap and still holds its value pretty well. So the new version won't be a cheap toy either... Personally I found it to small and unusual. The sound quality also was mehhh... Think a FLX4 + Macbook is still a better combo.
Thinking of using this with some Ibiza Wave 10 speakers at small arrangements on the beach, outside harbour, veranda or whatever occasions where power isn't avaliable. Quick setup
Can we get a comparison to the AT Ominus Duo? I had the OG Prime Go, but eventually sold it cause Engine OS at the time was too bare bones compared to Rekordbox.
Tried out the bluetooth out on my prime go . It connects to my mackie thump go with no issue but it wont see either of my minirig 3 speakers have u teied connecting to yr mini rigs via bluetooth from the prime go?
What resolution are the pitch faders? I have the Mixstream Pro Go and the pitch faders are fairly rubbish. I would consider upgrading if they’re better quality in the Denon.
Loved the original. One thing to beware of, the build is not as robust as it seems. Treat it as a FRAGILE ITEM and don't jostle it qround!! Especially the headphone controls on the front. Unfortunately mine broke along with some internal PCB boards somehow and it was unable to be fixed. Now i have reason to get this new one hehehe.
Oh, and the knobs and pitch faders as well. Not sure if I used it too much, but eventually they became unprecise. Can't even center the bpm on the pitch faders. Seriously not sure if I got a lemon. If you want to get this thing definitely get a strong protective case and cover.
I have had the original Go for years I love it, its great for a last min invite to a mates BBQ or take on holiday etc, I really don't see why they took the network port off, that probably saves them about 10p as the hardware will almost certainly still be capable of it and it probably still has the area on the board just with no connector. My only real annoyance with the Go is the 1 USB port if you have a couple of DJ's who want to use their own sticks you need to use a USB hub, they missed a great opportunity to add 1 or 2 more IMO. Im not a fan of the silver, I think the original looks better :)
spent many many days on the road with the og and often showed up to gigs with Pioneer gear, used this and exceeded the capabilities of the house setup. i definitely don’t need an upgrade but also glad they’re continuing this line
So the new one gets amazon music and the old can't get it? Besides the color and ethernet port I'm unsure that's the real difference? Makes sense to buy a used one and save your money. Thanks for making great content!
Amazon streaming requires a special security chip or function which the older units just dont have so although it looks similar there will be ever so slight hardware revisions.
@@mistalee Yeah pretty much unless you really like the looks on the new one, I personally prefer the original or you want the additional 25% battery life
@james141111 oh right the battery life. Love my unit as it fits my needs and works without issue. I am happy the update is minor which means our units will also keep it's value
Bro I have purchased a Denon 6000 mk1 recently. Would it be possible to do a video on how to integrate Amazon Music, Spotify, Soundcloud, Beatport, music libraries into it via sidify. Or point me in tbe right direction how i can go about it.Thankyou
The usb ethernet dongle trick has been around for a while works on the sc lives. Probably e en the Numark. There is another one to adapter to the power of the Sc Live units that is usb and plugs into a usb battery if you wanted to take those mobile though I think the Numark and the Go are much better designed for that. That said it's a good hack to use if your power brick dies.
I really like the look of this as a backup controller, but I'm a Serato user and it looks like there's no compatibility on the Prime Go +. How much of a pain in the butt do you think it would it be for me to flit between Engine on this unit and Serato on my main controller?
This is not designed to use Serato primarily, the whole point is about standalone so you’re gonna have the issue if you want to use Serato alongside any standalone. The only software that bridges standalone and controller is rekordbox
It's a slight shame they didn't partner with Skaa and include a built in transmitter for soundboks etc. That would have been a sweet upgrade that is missing from the omnis duo.
Engine as it was known from the start was a bit awkward and flawed, but as it has grown to engine DJ as it is known now as one of the best if not the best stabdalone operating systems in the world today. Thats my opinion angway.
@@digitaldjtips The Qualcomm CPU (same as many samsung phones), just does not have the power needed to do Stems. Hence why Serato requires a high end i7 CPU.
I love my original prime go but the only issue i had with it is playing lossless files like wav and aiff. when i was doing a set playing lossless files the sound starting cutting off. it always happens around after 45-55 min into the set. you could tell the cpu was struggling. i used fast SD cards, fast flash drives and even t7 ssd and it was the same issue. i played the same tracks in 320mp3 and 0 issues. all tracks were bought at beatport. just wondering if they increased the cpu on prime go+?
Some people might say "use your ears" haha if I want to use ears only I will use records to mix. If I mix digitally I want to see waveforms and sound levels.
The Prime Go "looks" professional. But the Numark Mixstream Pro Go is actually more useful in real world professional environments. The Numark speakers are useful for practice, and monitors for small parties. The Numark also has bigger jog wheels, effects paddles, and most importantly its compatible with Serato.
Pretty disappointing coming from an extended use with the Prime Go, to the same thing in "Nostalgic TechNerd Grey". I've never used up my battery doing a marathon 3+ hour set with mine, it's not really what they're made for. Adding 25% more battery and one streaming service is hardly worth spending money on. Did they upgrade the processor in it? No advertising about that, which is a CRITICAL requirement. Not hating on it at all, I love the Prime Go. Just really expected a more significant, modern and polished unit.
I've asked them ever since they started this line of products to simply add the standard shift + cue to allow that to happen, but they won't, so you have to use the screen, unfortunately.
This is a big missed opportunity from Denon imo. If they had of made a unit with similar dimensions and and layout with something like the Omnus Duo, with engine Dj it would have been the undisputed king of battery powered controllers and would have had their units flying of the shelves. Made my decision now easy, to buy a mixstream Go as I was holding of for a prime go 2.
One of the unique selling points of this was its size, and the Omnis Duo is notably bigger, so I guess they decided they wanted to keep it exactly as it was.
@digitaldjtips Yes size is nice but a lot of people didn't like the layout of EQ's. I could live fine with the jogs maybe the same unit with a more traditional layout I think it would have been a nicer complimentary unit to the OG Go.
Phil says "eethernet" like an American, but Mojaxx says "ehthernet" (or "aethernet," maybe). Is this just a regional UK difference in the pronunciation?
Funny story, I was in London recording the audiobook version of our "Rock the Dancefloor" DJ book last week, and working with the director of that production made me realise how many words I pronounced slightly differently to what might be seen as standard British English. It probably comes from living in Gibraltar - a long, long way from England - for many, many years now, where pronunciation is all over the place.
This is disappointing in that it's not much of an improvement. I do see their possible logic though: 1. Not wanting previous users to feel completely left behind and 2. Parts are a regular complaint about Denon gear. The less the hardware changes significantly, the easier it is to maintain stock on parts. I have the original and as an electronic DJ, I'm not bothered about the jogs, even though they're not great. I've carried mine in my backpack across countries and flights over the past couple years.
@@digitaldjtips I mean, for streaming we have some security thanks to pre-buffering. But for Ableton Link with Akai units… ough… anyway, once again, thanks Mr. Phil! 👍
@@digitaldjtipsMaybe a reflection of how little impact the Omnis Duo had made. But I have one and it’s fantastic - as a backup and using when the equipment at a venue is sub par. Plug in my USB and away I go.
no point in upgrading tbh. Amazon music is a bit...meh. I wish they'd have put led levels on each channel, that's my only bugbear. With different volumes on tracks its hard to get levels correct without.
Oh no, definitely not - that's why they just called it a Plus. It's the same controller with a couple of small changes. What they have done, though, is show faith in it and show that it's not going to be out of date anytime soon, which of course is great for all owners of the old one.
funny how nobody crying that denon is not listening to the consumer. Where is the innovation - is denon done?? Im being sarcastic because this is the lamest update to a product that if they made a few tweaks could have blown away the competition. They added amazon music which 90% of real DJ's couldnt give a crap about. Just sayin lots of pioneer / alpha crying but why not the same fort this waste of an update from Denon. They didnt address the terrible jog wheels, weird layout, screen angle etc.... Mixstream pro go blows this away minus a few inputs and Denon branded additional FX's.
Because InMusic have been releasing regular firmware updates that continually improve people's existing products.... whereas Alpha do absolutely nothing in that respect. Keep an eye out for the next version of the Firmware, im sure its on its way soon enough.
Again, it wasn't really in need of a fix - if you look at this the other way, this is a product that was way ahead of its time and is still desirable today. DJ gear doesn't need to completely reinvent itself every 18 months, and I don't understand this need for that to happen among hobby DJs. It's just a tool to do the job, which is the real reason we're all doing this, right?
@@digitaldjtipsagree with you. My sarcastic comment was just to show that everyone bashing anything pioneer releases nowadays but not same for denon. This is a great unit but the new one really is the exact same with the latest tech added. Please see XDJ AZ for same thing yet entire denon fan base ripped it. No innovation. Change. Seems the hate is just to hate. I love all gear and have numark. Denon and pioneer gear. Each has its plus and minus.
Yeah but they ain’t trying to pass it off as a Prime Go 2 that’s the difference lol. It’s a Prime Go + which I expect most Denon users would know its just a small update. I’m saying this as someone that is not a Denon fan too. It’s nice to get the Plus refresh in between Prime 4 and Prime 4 + and now the Prime Go and Prime Go + etc. Every Denon fan will know without research that the name of this device doesn’t mean its a new device, I mean did lol. There ain’t a doubt about who is more innovative with their products if it was between Pioneer or Denon. It just depends on if you want to stay with club or an other type of DJ. Check out some of Denons sister company that make Numark you will see the same trend continues with the Mixstream Pro and the Mixstream Pro + Once you hear the word plus it says that its not a new board just a refresh.

i have the original and love it i dont need the updated version but happy to see Denon continued with this type of device
Yeah, I bet a lot of owners are breathing a sigh of relief that their unit is going to live on for a bit longer - despite being many years old now.
Best ceremony setup and small function device I've ever owned. Works great as a backup to your main set up as well
Yes, exactly - that seems to be the niche that this fully satisfies.
Absolutely, im thinking same.
i was looking at the original version yesterday. it's on sale. Now i know why, the new one is being released!! beautiful unit. i will definitely be looking at grabbing one
I had assumed they had let the prime go die off in lieu of the mixstream systems. So glad to see its still alive and kicking
Yes, you and a few others, we think.
Totally right about that collapsible stand. They also are great for controller+laptop setups.
Yeah, and they take up so little space
I got the Prime Go almost 3 years ago and I am really happy with it.
Constant software updates, improving things over time, and the last 4.1 gave us also bluetooth out!
Is it perfect?

No problem 👍

I've been suggesting that same stand to Go users for the last year.
Great video thank you. Does it support DJay pro software?
Not that I know of
Honestly, the original not having slip mode made me return it. I surprisingly use that a lot. Them putting it in for this version is a dealmaker for me.
Excellent news
Here's a hint for ya. Next time, find out if its got the features you want first, then you wouldn't have to return it. 😏😆

Good point - it does look a bit similar.

Solid review
We're here to help.
I switch from Pioneer, the top of them to SC6000, 4+, PrimeGo
I sold the 4+ last month, it is not my type
But SC6000 and PrimeGO is still the best thing rn,
GO+, fine, keep it going.
Does this have Mic eq accessed via the software menu settings on the screen?
Here we go! The start. Did you know this was coming phill?
OFC he did lol hes probably had that for at least a week or two
Ohhh the battery on my original GO has given up and it is currently with Denon for repair... I wonder if they will replace it with the newer battery instead 😉🙏🏼
It’s nice to have the sd card option also usb at the back so soundswitch dongle can be plugged in for lighting output. I owned the P4+ I’m also looking at getting the prime go
Good point, Ritha Dungo.
i have that stand for my mixstream pro go. got it off amazon and its extremely light and easy to pack away
Yes, we agree - it's pretty cool.
I didn't hear the price...
Current price plus a couple hundred of whatever currency.
The original GO was not cheap and still holds its value pretty well. So the new version won't be a cheap toy either...

What resolution are the pitch faders? I have the Mixstream Pro Go and the pitch faders are fairly rubbish. I would consider upgrading if they’re better quality in the Denon.
They are better than the Mixstream Pro Go.
Which one is better: Numark mixstream pro go or Denon dj prime go+ ?
This is definitely the more professional of the two, but you may prefer the layout and the bigger jogwheels of the Numark - up to you, really.

You should do a comparison between numark mixstream pro + and this... I do love my prime 2, and am a Numark fan also
Mixstream Pro is for the hobby audience - this is for the pro audience.
Can you drop the link to laptop stand?
No idea sorry, bought it years ago

Little jogwheels lawd

Funny story, I was in London recording the audiobook version of our "Rock the Dancefloor" DJ book last week, and working with the director of that production made me realise how many words I pronounced slightly differently to what might be seen as standard British English. It probably comes from living in Gibraltar - a long, long way from England - for many, many years now, where pronunciation is all over the place.
This is disappointing in that it's not much of an improvement. I do see their possible logic though: 1. Not wanting previous users to feel completely left behind and 2. Parts are a regular complaint about Denon gear. The less the hardware changes significantly, the easier it is to maintain stock on parts.
I have the original and as an electronic DJ, I'm not bothered about the jogs, even though they're not great. I've carried mine in my backpack across countries and flights over the past couple years.
I do think that sometimes features are expected when none is really necessary
No tilt screen ughhh… pass!
removed port was so unnecessary…. sighs
Yeah, we miss it
@@digitaldjtips I mean, for streaming we have some security thanks to pre-buffering. But for Ableton Link with Akai units… ough… anyway, once again, thanks Mr. Phil! 👍
To me the idea is great but the layout is a disaster. if they will fix it and do the layout close to the normal dj setup ill get one hands down
That would make it bigger, and that’s part of its charm, you get used to it
“it’s still unique…” ?????!!? What is the Omnis Duo then?
Actually, a good point, but the fact that I'd temporarily forgotten about that shows what a copy of the Prime Go that one really was.
@@digitaldjtipsMaybe a reflection of how little impact the Omnis Duo had made. But I have one and it’s fantastic - as a backup and using when the equipment at a venue is sub par. Plug in my USB and away I go.
no point in upgrading tbh. Amazon music is a bit...meh. I wish they'd have put led levels on each channel, that's my only bugbear. With different volumes on tracks its hard to get levels correct without.
Pretty sure you can opt for channel levels in the software, although not checked.
@@digitaldjtips you can, it came with one 3.x update
Those meters are still too small. 7 segments is what I regard as minimum for proper leveling
It's not worth the upgrade from the Prime Go.
Oh no, definitely not - that's why they just called it a Plus. It's the same controller with a couple of small changes. What they have done, though, is show faith in it and show that it's not going to be out of date anytime soon, which of course is great for all owners of the old one.
$1000 USD
Five years on and they couldn't put channel volume meters.... even in software.... again 😬
nope, that has been available for months via an update.
100% its the only thing missing!!!
@@GingerBoy1974 it’s not missing
I really don’t like the color scheme… looks like 90s HiFi Equipment
This can control lighting and the new fake Pioneer controlller can't. I'm sorry that's embarrassing 😳
Controlling lighting is hardly a core feature of DJ controllers
funny how nobody crying that denon is not listening to the consumer. Where is the innovation - is denon done?? Im being sarcastic because this is the lamest update to a product that if they made a few tweaks could have blown away the competition. They added amazon music which 90% of real DJ's couldnt give a crap about. Just sayin lots of pioneer / alpha crying but why not the same fort this waste of an update from Denon. They didnt address the terrible jog wheels, weird layout, screen angle etc.... Mixstream pro go blows this away minus a few inputs and Denon branded additional FX's.
Because InMusic have been releasing regular firmware updates that continually improve people's existing products.... whereas Alpha do absolutely nothing in that respect.
Keep an eye out for the next version of the Firmware, im sure its on its way soon enough.
Again, it wasn't really in need of a fix - if you look at this the other way, this is a product that was way ahead of its time and is still desirable today. DJ gear doesn't need to completely reinvent itself every 18 months, and I don't understand this need for that to happen among hobby DJs. It's just a tool to do the job, which is the real reason we're all doing this, right?
@@digitaldjtips I’ve come to the conclusion that many aren’t doing it for that reason unfortunately. More interested in gear than actually using it
@@digitaldjtipsagree with you. My sarcastic comment was just to show that everyone bashing anything pioneer releases nowadays but not same for denon. This is a great unit but the new one really is the exact same with the latest tech added. Please see XDJ AZ for same thing yet entire denon fan base ripped it. No innovation. Change. Seems the hate is just to hate. I love all gear and have numark. Denon and pioneer gear. Each has its plus and minus.
Yeah but they ain’t trying to pass it off as a Prime Go 2 that’s the difference lol.
It’s a Prime Go + which I expect most Denon users would know its just a small update. I’m saying this as someone that is not a Denon fan too. It’s nice to get the Plus refresh in between Prime 4 and Prime 4 + and now the Prime Go and Prime Go + etc.
Every Denon fan will know without research that the name of this device doesn’t mean its a new device, I mean did lol. There ain’t a doubt about who is more innovative with their products if it was between Pioneer or Denon. It just depends on if you want to stay with club or an other type of DJ.
Check out some of Denons sister company that make Numark you will see the same trend continues with the Mixstream Pro and the Mixstream Pro +
Once you hear the word plus it says that its not a new board just a refresh.
The color scheme is ugly
Gun metal silver/grey seems neutral
doesn't seem like they changed much.. and ya more gear need the screens to pop up or come at an angle..
